Title: Fundamental bound on topological gap
(Submitted on 31 May 2023 (v1), last revised 24 Oct 2023 (this version, v3))
Abstract: We provide a universal tight bound on the energy gap of topological insulators by exploring relationships between topology, quantum geometry, and optical absorption. Applications of our theory to infrared absorption near topological band inversion, magnetic circular dichorism in Chern insulators, and topological gap in moir\'e materials are demonstrated.
